Screen Violence from Settler Colonialism to Cognitive Capitalism: Westworld and the Player Piano
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2022-09-01)While the HBO show Westworld (2016–present, created by Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan) has gained much critical attention for its byzantine plotting and philosophical conundrums, the present discussion focuses instead on the basic premise on which the titular park operates, namely that the algorithms that govern human behavior can be disclosed by studying how human beings behave toward image beings. ... -
Inclusive gender: A grammatical view
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-01)En los últimos años se ha visto emerger un nuevo marcador de género en español al que se identifica como género inclusivo, lo cual da lugar a sustantivos con tres formas de género –niño, niña, niñe–. El objetivo de este trabajo es alejar esta cuestión de consideraciones políticas o sociales y examinar los rasgos gramaticales internos que tiene esta nueva forma, como una vía para encuadrar cualquier ... -
The Finnmark Library A Scholarly Library in “Ultima Thule”
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-22)Finmarksbibliotheket (“The Finnmark Library”) was established in the municipality of Vadsø in 1892, by central representatives of the town. It was intended to be a systematic collection “of books and manuscripts related to the history, ethnography, language, natural history, and statistics of Finnmark County,” especially “to collect everything written about the Sámi.” Its stock increased steadily, ... -
Argument placement in Swedish
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-01-17)This paper gives an overview of the Swedish data on argument placement in the Nordic Word Order Database (NWD; Lundquist et al. 2019). The data were collected from 54 native speakers in three different locations, and the experimental task elicited argument placement (subject shift, object shift, long object shift, particle shift). The results confirm that there is considerable inter- and intra-speaker ... -
Argument placement in Norwegian
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-01-17)This paper gives an overview of the results from three data collection sessions that took place in Norway in 2018, which specifically targeted the placement of subjects, objects and particles in main clauses. The results reveal a fairly high amount of variation in the relative linear order of phrasal subjects and negation, and phrasal objects and verb particles, while the placement of pronouns show ... -
El caso oblicuo de las preposiciones: raíces, constituyentes y concordancia
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)Aquest treball proposa una anàlisi configuracional al fet que, per a molts parlants, preposicions com según o bajo no puguin assignar cas oblic al pronom i al fet que en espanyol actual l'assignació de cas oblic sigui impossible amb dos pronoms coordinats (*a ti i mí). S'argumenta que, en les varietats més restrictives, el pronom oblic materialitza un constituent sintàctic que conté una capa relacional ... -
En to ganger servert oksesteik, et to ganger servert drama. Doktor Tomas Stockmann – en mannlig versjon av Nora Helmer
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-16)I et brev til sin forlegger, Frederik Hegel, datert Roma 21. juni 1882, kommenterer Ibsen En folkefiendes sjanger: «det har meget af lystspillets karakter ved sig, men også en al-vorlig grundtanke». I tråd med Ibsens uttalelse blir dette dramaet ofte lest som en politisk komedie med et alvorlig tema, samtidig som man mer eller mindre eksplisitt gir uttrykk for at det er litt uklart hva denne alvorlige ... -

How to quantify bilingual experience? Findings from a Delphi consensus survey
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-04)While most investigations of bilingualism document participants’ language background, there is an absence of consensus on how to quantify bilingualism. The high number of different language background questionnaires used by researchers and practitioners jeopardises data comparability and cross-pollination between research and practice. Using the Delphi consensus survey method, we asked 132 ... -
Russian feminitives: what can corpus data tell us?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-22)Recent years have seen considerable debate concerning Russian feminitives, i.e. derived formations that designate female professionals, such as advokatka, advokatša, advokatessa, ženščina-advokat or advokat-ženščina that all refer to female lawyers. In this article, we investigate the use of feminitives based on data from the Araneum Russicum Maximum corpus and the Russian National Corpus. It is ... -
Extraction from finite adjunct clauses: an investigation of relative clause dependencies in Norwegian
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-01-10)Recent experiments have confirmed earlier informal evidence that finite adjuncts are not islands categorically. Specifically, it has been shown that adjuncts are not necessarily islands for all dependency types (Sprouse et al. 2016), and that the island status of an adjunct depends on the type of the adjunct clause in question (Kush et al. 2019; Müller 2019; Bondevik et al. 2021; Nyvad et al. ... -

Letter-similarity effects in braille word recognition
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-16)Letter-similarity effects are elusive with common words in lexical decision experiments: viotin and viocin (base word: violin) produce similar error rates and rejection latencies. However, they are robust for stimuli often presented with the same appearance (e.g., misspelled logotypes such as anazon [base word: amazon] produce more errors and longer latencies than atazon). Here, we examine whether ... -
‘Russophone Israeli Cinema: “Accented”, Post-Soviet, Transnational, Postnational?’
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)This issue focuses on Russophone cinema in Israel, i.e., films made by and about ex-Soviet Israelis in Israel and elsewhere. Our work on this publication began well before Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022. Even if the current war has little bearing on the articles and reviews that are collected here, it is not at all surprising that this particularly horrifying context leads, ... -
‘Neo-Gothic Clairvoyance and Palingenetic Myth in Late Soviet Czechoslovakia and Post-Soviet Israel: Pavel Kohout’s The Premonitions of St Clara (1980) and Its Film Adaptations’
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)Pavel Kohout’s bestselling novel The Premonitions of St Clara (Nápady svaté Kláry), whose first German edition was published in Hamburg in 1980, and first Czech edition in Toronto in 1981, describes a commotion caused by a psychic teenage girl called Clara in an unnamed Communist-run small provincial Czech town in the mid-1960s. My article traces how the novel and its adaptations – a 1980 ... -
Er politiet sikker eller sikre? Adjektivkongruens ved kollektiver i norsk
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022)Dette er en empirisk studie av adjektivkongruens i norsk. We undersøker setninger med et kollektivt substantiv som subjekt og et predikativt adjektiv i singular eller plural. Med utgangspunkt i data fra to elektroniske korpora og en informantundersøkelse viser vi at pluralkongruens er utbredt i setninger av den typen vi analyserer. Følgende faktorer kan knyttes til valget mellom singular og plural: ... -
Distributividad recalcitrante y nombres colectivos
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-31)Los predicados recalcitrantemente distributivos son aquellos que, combinados con pluralidades, se aplican exclusivamente a los individuos particulares y nunca al conjunto (Estas cajas son largas). Estos predicados pueden combinarse con algunos nombres no contables o masa (arroz largo), si contienen unidades aislables, pero sorprendentemente no dan con facilidad la misma lectura con nombres ... -

The trajectory of the “Možno ja X?” construction: variation in speech acts of request in contemporary Russian
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-26)I explore the ongoing language change in which the impersonal modal word možno ‘can, be possible’ takes a personal clause (možno + NOM) as its complement instead of the Experiencer in the Dative case (možno + DAT) and the infinitival clause in the speech act of request in Contemporary Russian. The corpus-based evidence reveals that the construction možno + DAT is gradually being replaced by možno + ... -
